You know how Betsy DeVos kinda grinded on your nerves during the confirmation hearing?  You know she just didn’t seem genuine?

She ain’t.

President Trump’s nominee for education secretary, in written responses to questions from senators, appears to have used several sentences and phrases from other sources without attribution — including from a top Obama administration civil rights official.

I am happy to announce, though, that she did fulfill all her requirements and is set the graduate from the Melania Trump and Monica Clowley School of Original Thought.

Well, you’ve heard that alleged president elect Trump’s nominee for senior director of strategic communications for the National Security Council, Monica Crowley, plagiarized large portion of her book.

Well, come to find out, she also plagiarized large portions of her PhD dissertation.

But making money off other people’s work is what the 1% does.

Despite the news, the Trump team continues to support the appointment. “Any attempt to discredit Monica is nothing more than a politically motivated attack that seeks to distract from the real issues facing this country,” a transition spokesperson told CNN. The transition team did not reply to requests for comment for this story.

Her appointment to the National Security Council does not require Senate confirmation, but simply the nod of approval from Melania Trump.
